'''Script to save single frame poses from an animation.

Load the required figure and apply the animated pose.
Suggest using the Posing Camera to ensure that figure stays in frame.
Position the camera and save a sample pose to ensure that
resulting library thumbnail is satisfactory. Adjust as required.

Then run the script.

Except for selling this script you may use it however you like but
at your own risk.
